I honestly never was worried about the trooper. He was just a stormtrooper, and Vader rarely hurt Stormtroopers. That, and he could read thoughts. He probably could read that the trooper was nervous and knew why he was leaning over(catching his breath).

A joke around bodily functions categorizes as 'slapstick comedy'. Well known jokes alike are fart and poop jokes. Mostly considered to be low brow comedy. But hey, no judgement here. Just the facts. The more you know... The fact that it's evil dictator DARTH VADER makes it even funnier because of his high status being undermined. We identify as and/or empathise with the stormtrooper, thus the tension of getting murdered if laughter is not contained. There are more layers but I won't bore you with it... In short: there's more to it than you'd think.

Damn this is a beautiful vid on so many levels. Looks flawless, but the story! So many emotions - from FNG enjoying tunes - to freaking out - to relieved- to shitting his pants - to cunningly saving his ass - to breathing again. And Lord Vader - what a nightmare to have hiccups with those respiratory problems!
Imagine being trapped on an elevator with a Vader that is trying to hide his hiccup. Probably really hard with how painful that must be considering his injuries. Stormtrooper be shitting himself.
Darth Vader with hiccups is hilarious!!!
How are there so few subscribers? As many people like to complain, talk about what ifs, and pot stirers out there on Reddit, and other communities, this channel needs some love. I've shared these with my nephew. Pass the word so they get more subscribers, and we can get more episodes. Star Wars needs a comedy like this.

The lighting and reflection on this is so good!
This feels like something from “Star Wars: DETOURS.”
Fanfukintastic people, saw the original in the movie theater as a kid and this is stuff to be proud of.
That Stormtrooper must be thinking: “Don’t move, don’t speak, barely even breath, maybe he’ll think you’re dead and leave you alone.”
Stormtrooper telling himself “ so this is where I die. It was a good run.”
Great job. Totally relatable. I once had to drive my boss to the airport. He got in the front.
it's been a while. glad you made another!

The answer to that question? Because it features believable and relatable situations. I'd imagine a lot of people in this comment section can relate to being in such a tense situation with their boss, knowing their job and livelihood (or life in this stormtrooper's case) are on the line and can't afford to screw up.
I love this! Original. Hilarious. Brilliant! The humour is in the details, listen carefully. Outstanding job to the creators! ❤️

I mean, how many of us have been in a situation like this with our boss where our livelihood is on the line while in the same room as them?! Balance the serious stuff and high octane action with more believable situations like this that we can relate to, for god's sake!
